Coumarins and antiplatelet constituents from the root bark of Zanthoxylum schinifolium

Further study on the chloroform-soluble portion of the root bark of Zanthoxylum schinifolium led to the isolation of eight new coumarins: methylschinilenol (1), hydroxyepoxycollinin I (2), 8-methoxyanisocoumarin H (3), hydroxyschininallylol (4), hydroxyepoxycollinin II (5), schinitrienin (6), schininallylone (7), and isoschinilenol (8), along with twenty-six known compounds including fourteen coumarins, and nine alkaloids. The structural elucidation was determined by spectroscopic data. Among the isolates, terpenyl-coumarins and furoquinolines were the active constituents with antiplatelet aggregation in vitro and collinin (10) showed significant anti-HBC DNA replication activity.
